"Gelee blanche - Ete de la Saint-Martin" (White Frost - St. Martin's Summer) is an Impressionist painting by the French artist Alfred Sisley, created in 1873. The artwork captures a rural landscape scene typical of Sisley's oeuvre, depicting the effects of light and atmosphere with a delicate touch and a nuanced palette. The painting is named after the meteorological phenomenon known as a "white frost," which refers to the appearance of frost under conditions of clear skies and calm weather, and the term "St. Martin's Summer," which is akin to the Indian summer in North America, describing a period of warmer weather following the onset of cooler autumn temperatures.

In "Gelee blanche - Ete de la Saint-Martin," Sisley explores the transient effects of weather on the landscape, a theme that preoccupied many Impressionist painters. The composition likely portrays a scene from the countryside near one of the towns Sisley lived in and frequently painted, such as Marly-le-Roi or Louveciennes, both situated near the Seine River outside Paris. The artist's brushwork is loose and fluid, capturing the fleeting moment with a sense of immediacy that was revolutionary at the time.

Sisley's work is characterized by his dedication to plein air painting, where he worked outdoors to directly capture the essence of the natural environment. This approach allowed him to observe the subtle changes in light and color firsthand, which he translated onto the canvas with a sensitivity that has come to define his contribution to the Impressionist movement.

"Gelee blanche - Ete de la Saint-Martin" is a testament to Sisley's mastery of landscape painting and his ability to convey the mood and atmosphere of a scene through his refined color palette and innovative use of light. The painting is held in high regard among Sisley's body of work and contributes to the broader understanding of Impressionism as an artistic movement that sought to depict modern life through a focus on natural phenomena and the changing qualities of light.
